Don't try Videodrive, it is a waste of time. You will see that it would take around 200 hours to convert. If you pass these 200 hours without a crash then you're fine! I did not have this luck.
Today in 2011 I expect that converting a video should not be such a big deal. for me it definitely is!

Before I used method 4 to create non-converted copies of my videos for my hacked white AppleTV. For christmas I got a black AppleTV, so now I'm using method 6 which converts videos. So, this HandBrake support is a welcome upgrade.

Short review: Importing videos is very fast (with the default settings), but the amount of metadata added to shows is not that extensive. It's getting everything from IMDb which is great for movies, but not always for TV Shows. The quality of the covers has gone up in recent versions so that's a bonus. All in all, still a happy user.

So, if you want to automatically tag TV shows, steer clear of this one.
However, we will issue an update where VideoDrive will take the episode name from the file name if no online episode name can be found. In this particular case, the name will be "8 - Bullocks to Stan" rather than simply "8". Also note that you can choose any prefix in Preferences so that the name can for instance be "Episode 8".

Otherwise you get that annoying anouncment.
More: You won't even be able to set your registration key.
Multilangual version coming soon?
There are no plans to release a multilingual version in the immediate version as we want to add more features first.
